Chapter 117

• [DIMITRI]
• “All the preparations have been made,” Lex says and continues to smoke his cigar, the white smoke thick around his mouth. “Whenever you say, my men will drop Ivan and his wife to your plane, and I’ll be more than happy to see you all leave.”
• I hold back the painful urge to roll my eyes. “Sounds good,” I say and offer my hand to him. No matter how much he hates my presence is here and no matter how much I hate seeing his ugly face, I can’t forget what he had done for us. He saved Ivan and Ana, and for that, I’m ready to look past almost anything. “It was nice doing business with you. If the time comes and you need our help, just say the word and we’ll do it. No questions asked.”
